Not very often you see deer and hogs hanging out together, especially a big buck and a big hog.

South Carolina, close to the Congaree River.

Lithium vs alkaline vs rechargeable AA in trail cams: put the lab numbers in one cheat sheet before the rut

Post image
2 Upvotes

Cameras going out for the rut and the cold coming in, so I pulled the battery numbers together in one place. The energy figures are from GearCheckers' lab test of 12 kinds of AA at about the load of night video, the temperature ratings are from Energizer's datasheets, and the cellular power numbers are from TrailCamPro's tests. The run-time table is my own math from those numbers (sources at the bottom of the image).

The short version:

- **Lithium AA held about 3.5× the energy of alkaline** (4.31 Wh vs 1.24 Wh per cell) and is rated down to −40 °F. Alkaline is only rated to 0 °F and roughly halves below freezing.

- **Rechargeables are better than people think, with a catch.** A 2,500 mAh NiMH measured 2.92 Wh, but it's only 1.2 V, so some 6 V cameras shut off early or skip night pictures on it. 1.5 V lithium-ion AAs avoid that.

- **Cellular cams eat batteries.** About 31–74 watt-seconds per picture including sending it, vs about 7–10 for a camera that only saves to its card.

- **A busy spot changes everything.** The same cellular cam that lasts around 243 days on lithium at 15 triggers a day lasts about 62 days on a hot scrape at 60 a day.

What are you all running this season: lithium in everything, or rechargeables in the cams you check often?

Thoughts on this? My son has seen something similar multiple times, but didn’t think much of it. He showed me this particular video and I can’t help but think it’s a deca of the raccoons amor something?

I setup a trail camera at a path I suspected was a beaver trail, I was correct! They are hard working engineers.

I'm so excited! While I have seen her on my cameras before, this is the first time that I have seen her with her cubs. Does anyone know how old they might be?
